I am a long time chronic pain patient with a very long list of chronic pain issues. I have tried EVERY treatment out there & finally was put on opioid meds. They are the ONLY thi.g that has helped me to have SOME quality of life. I’m scared to death with what’s going on with the doctors, DEA & lawmakers. We need to do ALL we can to bring more attention to this issue. However, like many chronic pain patients, I’m not well and I don’t know how to bring more attention to this appalling situation which, I DO believe is a violation of our Civil Rights! I have already written to my legislative rep. with no results. If anyone is advocating on behalf of chronic pain patients, I would love to get involved. If we don’t do SOMETHING, its only going to be a matter of time before WE are the next victtim!!
